  2. Changing the background scene on the sign-in screen

    Hi,

    Windows 10 lets you use the lock screen picture as the background picture of the sign-in screen. For you to change the picture on your sign-in screen, you need to change your
    Lock screen picture first, see steps below:

    • Go to the Settings, then Personalization.
    • Under Background section, click on the drop down and choose
      Picture
      .
    • Select Lock screen, under Choose your picture section, click on
      Browse and select your desired picture.
    • Make sure to turn on the Show lock screen background picture on the sign-in screen option.

    Let us know if you have any other questions.

  3. Windows sign in background pictures

    Hi Gigi,

    Setting up background pictures on your sign in/lock screen page is a great idea! You can find the images that comes with Windows by following these steps:

    • From the Start menu, type in This PC then hit
      Enter.
    • Once on This PC, look for the Pictures folder from the left side of the screen.
    • Click the Pictures folder, then you will see the images/pictures that comes with Windows.

    Let us know if this helps.

    Show lock screen background picture on the sign-in screen


    I actually found relief most lately by relinquishing control back to Windows, by letting it choose the best settings, as was the original selection that started this whole mess for me. Maybe their "fix" snuck that functionality back in for us?
